subject: Coffee Mugs Are Cost-effective Promotional Materials [print this page] Businesses give away corporate gifts to customers to express their thanks for their continued patronage of a company's products or services. Some companies also give tokens of appreciation for their clients and business establishments partners.
Drinkware is one of the most in demand corporate gifts given by companies. And the most popular drinkware is the mug, which has earned its place as an essential door prize in almost every corporate function. Considering that the mug is quite functional and versatile, many people treasure this drinkware as a corporate gift. Mugs are offered in different types of materials such as plastics, aluminum, porcelain, class, and ceramic. The mug never goes out of fashion as a corporate giveaway. There are many styles, colors, and motifs to choose from, and many corporate gift shops would be more than happy to fill in your order if it is by the bulk.
As a corporate gift, the mug is truly practical because its design could be customized to fit the motif of any corporate function where the mugs will be given as gift items. The choices are wide and varied. One example to turn mugs into personalized gift items is to take a photo of a corporate function, and then have this picture heat transfer printed unto the surface of the mug. The finished product can then be given to those who participated in the function. This gives the participants a long-lasting memento of the affair.
A lot of drinkware items these days have snug-fitting lids. These lids ensure that no liquid will be spilled accidentally. Further, the mug can also be a means to frame pictures. There are now mugs available for this purpose, and they are aptly named display mugs. Unlike a drinking mug, the display mug is produced not for holding beverages but is solely meant for display purposes. Pictures can be transferred onto the surface of the mug by any transfer-printing method (the most popular method is heat transfer printing); afterwards, the mug can be displayed just like any traditional photo frame.
The mug is a versatile gift item, being also offered in a wide array of colors and designs. The mug is a good promotional medium, as well, considering that customers will more likely recall an establishment's name if they can see it every time they drink their regular morning coffee.
